Which inotify event signals the completion of a large file operation?

Question

for large files or slow connections, copying files may take some time.

using pyinotify, I watched the IN_CREATE event code. but this seems to happen at the beginning of the file transfer. I need to know when the file is fully copied - it is very useful if it is only halfway.

when the file transfer is completed and completed, what inotify event is fired?
